STOP and GO®
The effectiveness of treatment with splints depends largely on the correct tracking of the activations applied to each of them. To maximize effectiveness, STOP and GO® speed up each step and verify treatment progress. It also provides overlay tools to facilitate the procedure.
If the treatment has been successful in the verification phase, click GO and the next set of splints is automatically delivered. If modifications are needed, you can explore different therapeutic options on the fly to achieve the desired outcome in the shortest possible time.

Digital Tracks
Digital Tracks are bite blocks that are digitally designed based on a construction bite and are intended to change the orientation of the occlusal plane.
The treatment goal is to obtain inclined planes in both the upper and lower jaws. This allows patients to achieve sliding of the mandible in the sagittal plane when clenching, and thus a class I occlusion.
Digital Tracks are available in three variants:
1. CLASS II
2. CLASS III
3. To control the overbite
Digital Tracks can also be ordered as a separate product (included in the K-Target and K-Pro packages).
For fabrication, we need the models in a construction bite with the molars and canines in the correct position. Digital Tracks can be used to achieve an advancement of up to 2 mm.
Lingual Stops
Lingual positioned Spikes, that serve to control habits regarding tongue positioning.
Splints for tooth eruption
Active splint
It guides the eruption of a tooth to a recess that is planned into the splint according to the intended position.
Passive splint
It keeps the gap open until the tooth has fully erupted.
Occlusal Blocks
OCCLUSAL BLOCKS are used to advance the mandible. They are integrated into the splints, follow the principles of functional orthodontics and use the occlusal forces to resolve the malocclusion.
OCCLUSAL BLOCKS form a bimaxillary appliance consisting of an upper and a lower block, which provide planes for bite elevation at an angle of 70°. This achieves an advancement of the mandible into a class I occlusion.
The appliance is divided into two parts to ensure normal function and speech.
The OCCLUSAL BLOCKS therefore offer the highest level of comfort for the patient and the lowest visibility of all comparable functional orthopedic appliances.
This appliance is ideal for treating cases in Angle classes II.1 and II.2.
OCCLUSAL BLOCKS can only be ordered as part of the K-PRO package and include two sets of splints for each treatment stage.
